Charlie Sheen says he fooled fans into thinking he'd wed porn star girlfriend Brett Rossi by posting a cryptic message on Twitter.

The US actor posted a photo of himself posing with Rossi on the steps of the French consulate in Reykjavik, Iceland, where they have been holidaying, and accompanied it with wedding news.

He wrote: "This is the house ware (sic) M Gorbachev R Reagan did some epic (sic). It's also where S and I GOT MARRIED!"

But Sheen says the tweet was a "joke" directed at ex-wife Denise Richards.

"I wanted to give Denise a stroke" the 48-year-old actor told TMZ.

Rossi, 24, also took to her Twitter account on Sunday night to laugh off the wedding story, writing, "hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha epic".

Sheen and Richards have been locked in a bitter exchange of words via social media in recent weeks.

Sheen has been married and divorced three times. He divorced his third wife Brooke Mueller in 2011.
